» What

bitshift is an open-source
online source-code search engine, developed by programmers, for programmers. The engine currently aggregates
publicly-available code from two online frameworks – GitHub and Bitbucket – but has the necessary infrastructure to quickly incorporate
others, like StackOverflow and
Gitorious. bitshift supports a robust query
language, which allows users to search for specific languages, files, dates of creation and last modifcation,
and symbols (function, class, and variable names), amongst other attributes.
